Hellsinger Series

Fish and Ghosts (Hellsingers #1)

When his Uncle Mortimer died and left him Hoxne Grange, the family’s Gilded Age mansion, Tristan Pryce became the second generation of Pryces to serve as a caretaker for the estate, a way station for spirits on their final steps to the afterlife. Tristan is prepared for challenges, though not necessarily from the ghosts he’s seen since childhood. Determined to establish Tristan’s insanity and gain access to his trust fund, his loving relatives hire Dr. Wolf Kincaid and his paranormal researchers, Hellsinger Investigations, to prove the Grange is not haunted.

Skeptic Wolf Kincaid has made it his life’s work to debunk the supernatural. After years of cons and fakes, he can’t wait to reveal the Grange’s ghostly activity is just badly leveled floorboards and a drafty old house. More than a few surprises await him at the Grange, including its prickly, reclusive owner. Tristan Pryce is much less insane and much more attractive than Wolf wants to admit, and when his team releases a ghostly serial killer on the Grange, Wolf is torn between his skepticism and protecting the man he’s been sent to discredit.

Duck Duck Ghost (Hellsinger #2)

Paranormal investigator Wolf Kincaid knows what his foot tastes like.

Mostly because he stuck it firmly in his mouth when his lover, Tristan Pryce, accidentally drugged him with a batch of psychotropic baklava. Needing to patch things up between them, Wolf drags Tristan to San Luis Obispo, hoping Tristan’s medium ability can help evict a troublesome spirit haunting an old farmhouse.

With Wolf’s sister handling Hoxne Grange’s spectral visitors, Tristan finds himself in the unique position of being able to leave home for the first time in forever, but Wolf’s roughshod treatment is the least of his worries. Tristan’s ad-hoc portal for passing spirits seems to be getting fewer and fewer guests, and despite his concern he’s broken his home, Tristan agrees to help Wolf’s cousin, Sey, kick her poltergeist to the proverbial curb.

San Luis Obispo brings its own bushel of troubles. Tristan’s ghost whispering skill is challenged not only by a terrorizing haunting but also by Wolf’s skeptical older cousin, Cin. Bookended by a pair of aggressive Kincaids, Tristan soon finds himself in a spectral battle that threatens not only his sanity but also his relationship with Wolf, the first man he’s ever loved.

Argh. I’m practically snowed in. My car is no longer visible in the driveway and we’re in for 40 more cm of snow over night. I *need* some comfort reading. It’s not being released until December 30th?! Darn. Would have been nice to curl up by the fire with Fish and Ghosts while snowbound prisoner in my own home. LOL. Can’t wait to read it. Love love your novels and deliciously wonderful characters.

Some readers just want a carbon copy of the last book they read by the same author (with new names). If Geeky and fun were your goal…well done! Definitely a different feel/voice to this book, especially in the first half. Almost felt like (dare I say it) a ghost writer lol. By about half way I’d adapted to the differences and was thoroughly enjoying myself, another really fun book!! If this is a series, will be be seeing more of Tristan & Wolf? Or will other Hellsinger family members be the main characters? Thank you Rhys for yet another great story!

Just finished this last night & really liked it. Can we have the elephant in the next book, or the one after that? Tristan was so bummed when the elephant disappeared & I’d love to see him react if it comes back.

I’m nearing the end now. Love the story and the characters of Wolf and Tristan, the mom and Mara very much. Fun read. I’m a big fan of the “ghost story”. I admit though that I’m not a fan of Matt and Gidget as I find them annoying (I actually hoped they’d end up as three day guests at Hoxne Grange so they wouldn’t play such a large part in the next installment of the series;-) That’s just me – most readers seem to enjoy them. The dynamic between Wolf and Tristan made up for those niggles with witty dialogue and things that go bump in the night:)

I was finally able to finish this book and just loved it! I can’t wait for the next book in the series and can’t wait for Dirty Deeds too. Please keep writing and don’t listen to anything bad from others.

Loved it! I laughed out loud (which I love to be able to do in a book and to have those moments in a book where I cringed so many times a some of the graphics was surprising.) and had no problem with the difference in the writing style compared with the Sinnners Gin books (haven’t read your other series as I am not a fan of first person stories. Which sucks because I love all off your books that aren’t.). I often get tired of authors because their books start to all sound alike so it was a huge plus for me. I also got a kick out of the Sinners Gin reference at the end of the book. Not enough to throw off somebody who hasn’t read them but perfect for those of us who have. Hate having to wait for the next one. Hope you bring back Wolf’s mom. She was a hoot.

Great book. I fell in love with your writing with the Sinners Gin series and thought it was cool you added a Sinner’s Gin song in this one. I am really looking forward to Cin’s story. I hope you write it soon. Also hoping maybe he can help find out why Heather Cook is still hanging around. You haven’t disappointed me yet. Thank you. Keep up the great writing. Now onto the Dirty series.

I just have to say I loved this book!! I love romance, I love hot guys and I love the supernatural, and to have all of them in one HOT story, almost made me pass out…lol!!! PLEASE tell me there will another??

Finally got to it:) Which is a much bigger accomplishment than it sounds when there are 200+ physical books and 50+ eBooks sitting here to be read. And y’all keep writing more………Absolutely loved it! You had me at the Hitchhiker reference;) Now on to Black Dog Blues and I’m totally caught up (your books only, unfortunately) for a week or two

Found you through a recommendation from Amy Lane and started with the Sinner’s Gin series thanks to a Kermit Flail Monday for the third one (but I started at the beginning). Loved them! Picked this one next, and enjoyed the hell out of it. Also got all geek-happy with the Hitchhiker’s and Labyrinth references. then you made me exceedingly happy with the Wolfriders reference, as I’ve never run into anyone who knows about them. You are now on my shortlist of favorite m/my authors. Next up; Clockwork, then Cole. Or maybe vice versa…

Awwww thank you! If you are ANYWHERE near Los Angeles in November, Wendy Pini is going to be at Bent-Con again. We’re going there too… a bunch of us authors… but she was there last year and had the most delightful Cutter cosplayers. She’s a delight *grins*

I started reading your books based on a recommendation from Mercy Celeste and fell in love with Miki in Sinner’s Gin. I’m not sure how many times I have re-read each of the books in that series and when Amazon delayed the release of Tequila Mockingbird I went to the publisher’s site to get it instead, a few hours was just too long to wait. I had bought the first book in the Cole McGinnis series but I didn’t quite connect with the characters. After TM reminded me how enamoured I am of your writing style, humor, and character development I decided to try again, this time with something closer to my norm (fantasy/supernatural). I am so glad I did! The only drawback was that the second book isn’t out yet. Btw, adding in the Sinner’s Gin song towards the ending was inspired. The lyrics and conversations/recording that begin each chapter are wonderful additions to the story and not something I ever skim over.

So I’m totally hooked on your Cole & Sinners series’, and finally (FINALLY) had not only the money to try out the Hellsinger stuff, but the drive to do so (my feels can only take so much, Rhys, really). And I’m now 25% into Duck Duck Ghost and I’m really really hoping there will be more in this series (because I just know that I’m not gonna wanna say goodbye after this, nope nope nope, love Wolf and Tristan too much).

Totally agree with the other comment about the Wolfriders ref—may have had to smoosh a pillow over my face because I was so excited I was screaming. Bestie got me into ElfQuest in high school, been hooked since, and I’m always excited to see when others know about it as well!

TL;DR: I love these big nerds and your other nerds and basically I just don’t know what I’m gonna do when any of their adventures are over (unless you have new nerds, in which case I will love them too).

I just got around to read Duck Duck Ghost (FINALLY!!!) and thought this one is way waaay creepier than Fish and Ghosts. *not a ghost stories fan much here :p*
Though I love Wolf and Tris, may I request a dedicated story for Cin, please. He captivated me ever since Wolf mentioned him. 😉

Omg! Just read Duck Duck Ghost it was AWESOME! Please tell me will be getting to read the next book in the series soon because I got to tell you I’m hooked this series is a breath of fresh air never read anything like it can’t wait for the next installment!

Finally got to read Duck Duck Ghost, loved it. I just love ghost stories it is unique and I can’t wait for the next installment ugh like now! 🙂 oh what is a Harker? should I know this already or will I be finding this out? My memory can be shit sometimes grr. Can’t wait for well any of your books to come out!

I loved, Loved, LOVED this book. and I do have to tell you that Tristan James did an Awesome job at narrating it. He did such a good job with the “charity” voice that I had to sleep with the lights on for a couple of days. It was eerie and creepy and good all at the same time.

Helsinger, Harker and Frankenspeak! Blood, gore, and ghosts! You are fantastic. Just finished both books. Loved the ending with Harker thrown in. Can’t wait for the next one. Great series so far. Girl, you are awesome.

Wait wait! Just finished reading Fish and Ghost. So the big dog is a ghost?!! No Way! Great reading. Got totally into this book😀. Your writing was so good I am now behind in my knitting and crocheting. Couldn’t put my Kindle down.

Got the second book. I want to read it very much badly but I knit and crochet for veterans and our deployed military so I am making a compromise. Knit a scarf, read a chapter, crochet a beanie, read another chapter. Sounds good right? 😁

Love all of your series! Waiting , very impatiently, for the next Sinners Gin book😼 just finished DuckDuck Ghost. Omg! How could you leave me hanging like that😱. Can’t wait to see what happens next! Btw love the ebooks and the audiobooks. Tristan is fabulous 👍🏾

I love ur books both of the hellsingers series are on my kindle I’ve read them both multiple times can’t wait till the next one comes out I specially love Tristan be a medium of sorts myself I can so relate to him and skeptics like wolf have been in and out of my life for years I can honestly say u get the panormal aspects right in ur books love lots waiting in Kansas for ur next hellsinger book

I absolutely love the Hellsinger series! It’s one of my favorites to read over and over. I can’t wait for another installment…I have to say though, I would love to see a threesome come out of it. Am I the only one who got that vibe between Wolf, Tristan and Cin? Seems like such a good opportunity…lol. I can’t wait for more, no matter what it brings!

Also I would like to add a special shout to narrator Triston James. I have audible narration on both these books and he did a terrific job. Looking forward to his continued narration in the future books of this series.

Tristan is so awesome! He is. *grins* And thank you. So so much. I adore writing for the boys. And yes, they’ll be in book 3 *grins* I will be getting something in the store for the Hellsingers. Promise!

I’m so glad to hear a Book 3 will be coming. I really enjoy these books. To be honest, I wasn’t sure if I could handle Wolf’s name, but then I ended up just basically yelling “WOLF KINCAID” in a deep voice, because that sounded appropriate to me.

Also, I’m already pre-shipping Sin and Will. Because… their ship name would be Willsin. Like the volleyball on Cast Away. I swear, these books just make we want to yell out strange things.

Oh, I’m so happy to hear it. Love these two guys. As an inveterate book juggler, I’m toggling back and forth between Hellsinger #2 and Kai Gracen (the one and only), really digging both. My compliments on NOT being a cookie cutter author! Characters are what hook me in the quickest; in Tristan, Wolf, and Kai, you’ve got three super interesting and compelling guys!

Also, please let Tris and Wolf know that merely one month after meeting the spousal unit for the first time, we were shopping for houses together, and we were married 8 months later. It’ll be 20 years this December. That whirlwind romance thing, it can work.

Late to the party, but I just read Helsinger 1 & 2 this week, and am desperate to find out who Will is, what he wants, and how long before he and Cin end up in bed (all that angst and anger i can see coming just has to end that way!!).

Wolf and Tristan really work as a couple, and their adventures are just scary enough to be believable … I just knew that porcelain doll I was given as a child was evil!!!!

Just found your books. LOVE THEM ALL SO FAR! I started with Murder and Mayhem, then Half Moon Bay, then Sinner’s Gin and then Cole and Jae. I don’t normally read first person books but I loved all of the others so I thought I’d give them a go and I’m glad I did. They were wonderful.😀

I wish you could write as fast as I can read because, like everyone else, I can’t wait to read Sin’s story….. 😊

I grab these books on Audible last week. They are absolutely amazing. I have had more fun listening to these over and over and over again throughout this week. I’m taking a break to get back to Kai but I fully anticipate listening to these for a long time.
